Why is it impossible for a true believer to fall away?

Answered in 1 source

It is impossible for true believers to fall away because their salvation is secure in Christ, who will not allow them to be lost (Hebrews 6:4-6).

Hebrews 6:4-6 addresses the impossibility of a true believer falling away, stating that if an individual has truly experienced enlightenment through the Holy Spirit and tasted the goodness of God's word, it would require the Son of God to be crucified again for them to be lost. This indicates the permanent and irrevocable nature of God's grace towards His elect. Since true believers are united with Christ, their salvation is based on His work and not their performance, providing assurance that no true follower can be stripped of their salvation. This doctrine encourages believers to rely on God's promises, which are unchangeable.
